Subject: ANOTHER Surprise "Halo" game?! And one theory... + Releas...

Ohey guys :)

Wow, Bungie, you guys are just throwing out Halo games! What's next? *Cough* Halo 4 *Cough*

Anyway, we all know about ODST. But now we get a game about the Fall of Reach? And there will be multiplayer? That just gives away the fact that it is a total FPS. Also, why would Bungie make another genre? Another RTS would be pointless; Halo Wars already established that. A "Halo" RPG would suck. I DO have a good idea though...

How many of you played "Star Wars: Battlefront"? Yeah, that game was pretty beast. But, wouldn't it be BEYOND AWESOME if the same thing happened for Halo!?!?!?

If you don't know what Star Wars: Battlefront is, it's basically a game where you fight in a mini skirmish. In the beginning, you get to choose the kind of character you want, for example if you're part of the rebel team you can choose a rebel pilot, a rocket guy, an infantry guy, etc. Wouldn't it be so cool if that happened for this as a multiplayer mode? You can choose between ODSTs, Marines, Snipers, and if you do good in the round, you get to become a Spartan for a limited time.

Of course, there will still be Slayer, Infection, King of the Hill, Oddball, etc. Also, forge, theatre mode, etc. AND a totally awesome campaign.

Roundup: This will be a FPS, but there has to be a new mode like SW:BF. Also, all the aspects from Halo 3 would be included WITH an awesome campaign.

Any feedback?

EDIT: I think predict that the release date will be in late Winter, meaning late January or February. Look at the Halo 3 Beta. It took around four months after the beta before Halo 3 was released. If the beta of THIS is coming out in September, then the main game might possible come out in January or February (hopefully February 18, 19, or 20... My 16th birthday is on the 21st =)

I think they are going to keep Halo a shooter. I mean if they made it an RPG it wouldn't do to great. Thats probably why they are jumping back and forth through the Halo Universe they mentioned but didn't get in detail. Who know maybe the next Halo game will be focused on the Covenant :D

Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

I wouldn't get your hopes up for a SW:BF like Halo game. But for the most part, you got everything right. This is merely another Halo game, so it still has KOTH, Oddball, CTF, Slayer, Infection, and possible new modes too. Plus, it would be a downgrade if they didn't release it with Theatre and Forge included. That's one of the many reasons why Halo 3 has so many players, even after a year and a half after it's release.

It won't be focused on the Covenant...! There are five spartans standing in the banner right above you lol.

I eat faces.

Ive never played star wars battle front buit ive heard only good things. I catch your drift and that does sound pretty good. 100 vs 100 battles would be sweet. or possibly more if there was no lag. with more of a drop in drop out like CoD and a diffrent proggresion system for ranking.

If Halo was like the game Star Wars: Battlefront, it wouldn't be a new idea. Bungie comes up with good stuff, let them to it.

To be honest I would like it, and as they did with Halo Wars, get another Developer to make a Halo based game they could get Bethesda (The makers of Fallout 3, The Elder Scrolls series) to make the Halo RPG as they are very successful with RPG's.

Oh and Bungie aren't throwing these games out. Microsoft are as they now own the Halo IP.

Halo: Reach = Halo: Reach, not what you want it to be.

this idea seems likely judging by the reach forum banner which appears to show different classes of fighters

or they could just be main characters

but why would bungie put a new game of the same type out only a year after ODST?

If any of you read the books you would know that there are about 8 or 9 Spartans that made it off reach or they were off doing other missions else where. It likely that those other Spartans would make up the new story(s). Also Master Chief is from the Spartan ll program and there is little said in any book/game about the first spartan program. There is also the other spartan programs that were going on if you read the book: The Ghost of Onxy plus there are Spartans there from the spartan ll program. Bungie has a lot of room for a different story line/game. READ THE BOOKS THEY LET YOU IN ON A LOT MORE GOING ON THEN YOU THINK.

Ohey guys :)

Well, it wouldn't make sense for Bungie to release the multiplaye beta of "Reach" and then wait a year or two to release the actual game. It would kill all of the fans and make people hate (jk) Bungie.

  • 06.01.2009 3:41 PM PDT

Ohey guys :)

Yeah, thinking realistically, a ST:BF type of multiplayer variant would be awesome, but unrealistic. As Bungie said in their Halo 1 and Halo 2 commentaries that come with the Halo 3: Legendary edition (watch it every Friday night at 1 AM ^_^), they always delay the cool stuff and then add it in later.

They're probably the Spartans from Halo: Fall of Reach by Eric Nylund. In fact I'm almost sure.

Are you saying that this new game will be essentially a "book to game" type of game? Has that even happened yet?

Haha cool! My sixteenth B-Day is on Feb 22nd!

Anyway, on topic now.

SWBF was probably the most amazing game ever until it died out and if it happened to Halo it would more than likely never die. Add to that Bungie's periodical DLC and you have one heck of an EPIC game

Not one person on the planet Earth was speculating that Bungie would surprise us with yet ANOTHER Halo game, even though we're still quite aways from ODST's release.

  • 06.01.2009 4:17 PM PDT

Were it so easy.

I guarantee it will be an FPS. I am so excited. Info on 2 new games in 1 day (giving that we got more info in detail on ODST today).

  • 06.01.2009 4:34 PM PDT

Ohey guys :)

This E3 is lookin' good so far! New info on two new Halo games? What more could anyone possibly want?

  • 06.01.2009 4:36 PM PDT

Ohey guys :)

BTW:

A Halo RPG would SUCK. Just thought everyone should know.

Think about it! Having you buy weapons and ammo from shops? Having to do side missions? I love RPG's like Mass Effect and Fallout 3 as much as the next guy, but a Halo RPG? Would not work.
